8. Before accepting the part, Streep made a really Miranda Priestly- like relocation. Despite having actually currently gathered 2 Oscars and another 11 elections by that point, Streep had not rather mastered the art of requesting for more pay. But this time, she spoke out. “The offer was, to my mind slightly, if not insulting, not perhaps reflective of my actual value to the project,” she discussed to Variety “There was my ‘goodbye moment,’ and then they doubled the offer. I was 55, and I had just learned, at a very late date, how to deal on my own behalf.”
9. She had other needs too. Cautious about turning Miranda into a caricature, Streep demanded 2 scenes: What she called “the business of fashion,” in which the innovator schooled Andy on her cerulean sweatshirt, and “a scene where she is without her armor, the unpeeled scene in the hotel room.”
The white hair was her production too, Streep showing up with her icy locks for a sit-down with the head of the studio. As director Frankel remembered to EW, “Meryl channeled Miranda in that meeting, and there was no conversation about the hair; they looked into Meryl’s eyes and never said a word.”
